In the silent examination room, there was only the sound of the pen rubbing against the bamboo slips, other than that, there was no other sound.About 20 people sat kneeling in this spacious room, burying their heads in the answer wholeheartedly.Only the invigilator paced between them with his hands behind his back, patrolling back and forth.

Song Caijue looked at the last difficult problem in his hands, feeling a little embarrassed.The topic is: There is an old man who wants to die before you, but you have nothing to eat, but the old man said, you can only save him, and you will give it to your son with your own wealth.What are you doing?

Simply put, it is a moral question to test the character of the candidates.This is hard to break a large number of people who want to show their ambitions and ambitions, and are clean and honest.The current country is not very rich. Except for the prosperity of Kyoto, many other areas are in a slightly poor state.It is normal for some incapable people to starve to death.

People like them who came from other places naturally knew about it.Among them, a few people really saw it with their own eyes, but most of them chose to turn a blind eye. After all, what money would an old man who is about to starve to death have to repay?This tells them how to answer this question, they can only make it up, they can't answer and pretend not to see it.

Song Caijue was even more aware that this was the last day of the three days, and the last question was very important.All the items that have been tested before have been handed in. These answer sheets are bundled together in order and will be uniformly corrected by the reviewing bachelors. A few outstanding bamboo slips will be handed in to the king of a country.

Emperor Jin Heng personally selected the palace examination, and the top three who succeeded would stay in the imperial court, serving as insignificant positions such as fourth-rank officials, and then promoted step by step.The second is to work as small officials in suitable places such as imperial hospitals and local officials to seek development.

But Song Caijue had to work hard for 20 years to obtain such an insignificant position.That's right, he came here with the intention of winning, and he had to succeed.

Song Caijue no longer hesitated, and began to answer the question with a pen and a pen with the momentum that he must win:

Feed them with your own meat, and when they are full, kill them again, and then choose a place to bury them.After waiting for an official, the country must not be allowed to have such miserable people.

……

After a while of brush strokes and ink, Song Caijue put down his left hand holding the right cuff, and gently put the brush on the pen stand.Then he took out a handkerchief and wiped the tiny sweat off his forehead.Then he got up and picked up his own bamboo slips and handed them to the examiner.

Now all he had to do was wait for the release of the list a day later, and the corners of Song Caijue's mouth turned up slightly, which was rare.

On the spacious avenue, an ox cart was slowly moving forward. The black cow in front was gnawing the grass on the roadside while walking, and flicked its tail on its buttocks.

Yang Heng lay on the "convertible car" pulled by cattle with his legs crossed, with comfortable cotton wool and a layer of mats under his body.Paired with the fresh scent of green grass, the sun still shone warmly on him, which made Yang Heng feel uncomfortable.

His current destination, the border city, is almost here, so he doesn't have to worry about time at all, he just needs to enjoy such a leisurely life again.After all, once you enter the military camp, you won't be able to enjoy it.

"Mr. System, do you think I'm a good guy? It's so easy to fool them, haha!" Yang Heng laughed wildly in his heart.The system gentleman: "What's so proud of this, compared to other people, it can only be regarded as mediocre. Also, please call me by nickname." The other people in the system's mouth are naturally other players who have used this system.

"Why don't you know how to appreciate my acting skills at all, yes." Yang Heng smiled helplessly. Although he was a little unconfident in his heart, he was still a little stumped by Mr. System's words.When I thought about how hard it was to convince Yang Shi to let me join the army, at the cost of death, holding a knife to my neck, Yang Shi, who loves his son like his life, agreed and helped him join the army, I was heartbroken for a while. , just want to shout at the edge of the cliff: "Why, why doesn't I have a golden finger?! Damn God. Why are you doing this to me!!!

Being a soldier is really not easy, the villain in Yang Heng's heart began to cry, his age is indeed a problem, but with money, all problems can be solved, although in the barracks the money is useless No.

Of course, the money was all paid from the Yang family, and the most important reason why the Yang family was willing to pay was because of Yang Heng's attitude of wanting to serve the country and change his mind.

It's not because of Yang Heng's superb acting skills that he succeeded. Yang Heng himself didn't even know that he had such a great talent in acting.

"I can't appreciate it. Don't blame God, blame me if you want to. God is innocent." Mr. System said seriously,

"It's really an honest system... Then as compensation, can you give me a halo of pig's feet or something, as long as the target task is close to me, I can't help but fall in love with me." Yang Heng "swish" all of a sudden from the bullock cart Sitting up straight, there was a hungry light in his eyes.

"Do you think I might give you that kind of thing?" Hearing Mr. System's words, Yang Heng lay back powerlessly. It's better not to expect this cheating system, but to sleep and welcome a new life.

Song Caijue returned to the Yingfeng Inn again, and he did not see Yang Heng. He was disappointed, but then he thought about it—if he could be appreciated by His Majesty, would he be able to visit Yang's mansion and propose a proposal openly? How about taking Yang Heng as his foster brother?At that time, his parents must be very happy, after all, he has another reliance in the court.

Song Caijue's mood just improved a little, picked up a letter on the table, opened it, his good mood was gone, and his brows were wrinkled again.The whole handsome face became sullen because of unhappiness.

a day later.

Song Caijue was informed by the eunuch from the palace to enter the palace to meet His Majesty, and at this moment he understood... at least half of his success was achieved.One foot has stepped into a road with no end in sight.

The tall palace walls, the guards that can be seen everywhere, and the carefully planted flowers and plants reveal the uniqueness and prosperity of the palace walls.Song Caijue turned left and right following the eunuch who led the way, and finally arrived at Xuande Hall, where he found several young talents standing there, who seemed to have been here for a while.

He should be the last one to arrive. Thinking this way, he walked over and bowed politely and said: "Everyone, I'm late, please forgive me."

The others also responded politely, and one of them said: "Where, there is always someone who comes first, so why should you blame yourself?"

Song Caijue said in a gentle voice: "I think it will be very pleasant to work with everyone in the future. I am next to Song Caijue, who are you brothers?" Others began to introduce themselves one by one, and soon Song Caijue and They became acquainted.After a while of pleasantries, they didn't stop until their father-in-law asked them to go in and face the saint.

The current emperor is Jinheng Emperor Tuping, who has been in power for five years, and his achievements in governing the country are slightly poor. He also likes to eat, drink and have fun but not too much.He is neither a wise king nor a faint one, and he is a kind of emperor who can only leave a name in the history books.

Emperor Jin Heng rested his hands on the armrests of the dragon chair, leaned his slightly fat body on the back of the chair, looked at the students standing in a row below, and said, "Which of you is Song Caijue?" He picked up a bamboo slip handed to him by the eunuch next to him and unfolded it.

Song Caijue took a step forward from the crowd, bowed to Emperor Jin Heng, and then stood up gracefully, and said without haste: "Return to Your Majesty, Cao Min is right." Emperor Jin Heng looked at Song Caijue, who was full of literati style in the following actions, liked him even more in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, he just said, "I saw your scroll, and I like it very much, but there is one thing that I am confused about, and I want you." Can you answer me for me?" Song Caijue hurriedly said, "Cao Min will answer His Majesty truthfully."

Emperor Jin Heng held the bamboo slip in his hand, and slowly read Song Caijue's answer to the only moral question before, and then said, "Why did you make such an answer?" Song Caijue sorted out his thoughts, organized Clearly said: "The reason why the grass people answered this way is because they consider that the old man is about to starve to death, time is extremely precious, but he has no food on his body, so he should not look for it in the distance, only his own flesh and blood can feed him. But the old man If he survived this time, what about the next time? So Cao Min thought it would be better to send him away from this world of disputes after he was full. As for his money, whether he had it or not, it belonged to the old man. Spicy, but the best for old people."

What Song Caijue did was to sacrifice himself to fulfill righteousness, and to use the best "method" to help the old man, which also showed his own determination.

After hearing what he said, Emperor Jinheng thought that if Song Caijue's tricks were used in the court, there would be a big difference, and maybe there would be a peaceful world where "the country cannot be restored to such a miserable state".Under the peaceful and peaceful appearance of the current Jin Dynasty, inside it is internal and external troubles, corrupt officials, and insufficient military strength.It is the time when fresh blood that dares to do and fight is needed.

"I like your answer very much. In all subjects, your grades are also the best. Therefore, you are the number one scholar, haha. Go back to your hometown to celebrate, and you will be the Minister of the Minister of Ministers in a month." Jin Jin With a wave of Emperor Heng's hand, he gave Song Caijue a fourth-rank official. Although this official title was not eligible to go to court, it was extremely good for newcomers who had just entered the officialdom.

"I would like to thank Your Majesty for your appreciation. I will definitely be willing to be a cow and a horse for the court and the world. I will do my best and die!"

When Song Caijue came out of the palace, he felt that the burden on his back and the obsessions on his body disappeared, and his whole body felt much lighter.Will I have to return home with honor...
